With gauze covering his eyes, Pei Xiao fell into darkness.
She had a long dream, in which the scenes kept changing, and each fragment was related to a man. Is it Xi Xiangdong? Under the peach blossom tree, he turned around gracefully, his eyebrows and eyes so soft that they seemed to melt into the wind. Xi Xiangdong
Will there ever be such a gentle time?
I don’t know, the more she tried to see clearly, the more the man’s facial features seemed to be separated by a layer of fog. She could only hear him calling to herself sadly: "Coco, where did you go? I can never find you again."
Already..."
My heart felt like it was suddenly grabbed by someone, and I felt a sharp pain.
"Miss Pei, Miss Pei..."
A beam of light penetrated the darkness and shone in.
"Can you see my hand?" A ball of light and shadow wavered in front of her.
Pei Xiao tried her best to open her eyes. The corners of her eyes were slightly sore, perhaps because she hadn't seen the light for too long. More and more people were in her field of vision, including the surgeon and nurses surrounding her.
"Ms. Pei, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"
She blinked blankly, her eyes passing over each figure, and then she remembered that today was the day she was going to remove the gauze.
"I'm fine..." She moved her lips slightly.
The surgeon finally turned his worries into joy and took a mirror and put it in front of her: "Miss Pei, are you satisfied with it?"
Pei Xiao slowly looked at himself in the mirror, and his fingertips lightly traced the peak of his eyebrows, corners of his eyes, bridge of nose, lips, chin...
"This...is me?" It was a completely unfamiliar feeling, but she couldn't remember what she had been like before.
"We have tried our best to comply with Ms. Pei's request, and the effect of the surgery is quite perfect and looks very natural. If you don't say it, no one will believe that you have had plastic surgery," the doctor explained.
She is indeed very beautiful. Her skin is so white that it seems like light is shining through it. She is so white and bright. Her delicate oval-shaped face, especially her eyes, seem to contain a thousand mountains of mist, which makes people unable to see through but they are willing to keep looking at her. Their facial features are so beautiful.
The painting is probably about this kind of woman.
The other party patted his chest and assured: "You are definitely my most successful work."
It's always a bit weird to be called a "work". His eyes swept across everyone and stopped at a man in a gray suit at the door of the ward, because he was holding flowers and a box of cakes in his hands.
"Isn't Xi Xiangdong here?"
Secretary Lin sent the flowers: "Mr. Xi has an impromptu meeting to hold today, so he asked me to bring the cake and flowers to celebrate Miss Pei's discharge from the hospital."
Pei Xiao took the flower, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth became as shallow as nothing.
The nurse knew how to wink and said cheeringly: "Then let's help Miss Pei celebrate together?"
Some people brought candles and sang happy birthday to her. It was not her birthday today. But to her, today was indeed like a new life.
After cutting the cake and everyone had dispersed, Secretary Lin came over and said, "Please tidy up and I'll go down and help you get discharged from the hospital."
Pei Xiao stopped him: "Then where should I live?"
Secretary Lin narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Of course you live in Mr. Xi's home."
Living together... would be very inconvenient. But she had nowhere else to go.
The car drove to an apartment in a prosperous area in the city center. Xi Xiangdong lived in a duplex structure on the sixth floor, about 180 square meters. In an area where land is at a premium, living in such a large space is luxurious enough for one person.
Minimalist decoration is everywhere in the interior, and the furniture is simple black and white, full of the atmosphere of a single career man.
